This morning, the 93rd annual Oscar Nominations were announced, and I've listed them all below for your convenience. Like always, there were plenty of snubs and surprises. But overall, it's a fantastic selection of nominees. Yesterday, I published My 2021 Oscar Nominee Picks and Predictions, where I put forth my hypothetical ballots and predictions for what would be announced this morning. I've put the nominees I correctly predicted in bold, gold text, and the ones I picked on my ballot that were actually nominated in red text. I predicted 3 categories accurately, and all but one or two of the nominees in 15 different categories. For most of the categories I missed, a nominee I would have chosen got in instead, so I'm glad to have been wrong after all! A win-win in my book.
My Thoughts
While there are some snubs and surprises I'll get to momentarily, I'm delighted with these nominees for the most part. I didn't consider the possibility of Thomas Vinterberg swooping into Best Director and taking Aaron Sorkin's supposed slot. Still, I'm thrilled it happened because Another Round was one of my favorite films of last year. Another thing that's drawn a lot of attention is that Lakeith Stanfield and Daniel Kaluuya were nominated for Supporting Actor from Judas and the Black Messiah, which feels like major category fraud since both are leads and Stanfield campaigned as the lead. Nevertheless, they are two great performances, so I'm glad to see them recognized at least. Plenty of groundbreaking nominations happened in the acting categories, and it's the first time two women have been nominated for Best Director in the same year. This year, Sound Editing and Sound Mixing combined into one Best Sound category, so that's a bit disappointing because the two are very different. I'm thrilled to see a swell of support for The Father, Minari, Promising Young Woman, Judas and the Black Messiah, and Sound of Metal among my other favorites.
Surprises: LaKeith Stanfield and Paul Raci for Best Supporting Actor (yay!), Thomas Vinterberg for Best Director, Sound of Metal for Best Picture, Da 5 Bloods for Best Original Score, and Eurovision for Best Original Song.
Snubs: Tenet for Best Film Editing and Best Original Score, Delroy Lindo, Ben Affleck, and Mads Mikkelsen for Best Actor, Han Ye-ri and Rosamund Pike for Best Actress, Alan Kim and Chadwick Boseman for Best Supporting Actor, Helena Zengel for Best Supporting Actress, Spike Lee, Regina King, Christopher Nolan, and Florian Zeller for Best Director, and lastly Da 5 Bloods, Palm Springs, The Invisible Man, I Care A Lot, Never Rarely Sometimes Always across the board for netting 0 nominations (with Da 5 Bloods only nominated for Original Score).
